Chapter 1: Stop Cursing, Dear Daddies
2017, March.
Magic City.
In the basement of EDG training base.
Li Fan slumped in a creaking gaming chair, the screen’s light reflecting his “dead pig unafraid of boiling water” expression on his face.
On the screen in front of him was the live stream footage of 《QQ Speed》 SSG Spring League online match; in the just-ended match, a drift made all the players behind eat exhaust.
“Although what you said makes sense, let me ask you, wasn’t my ultimate skill in that wave handsome?” Li Fan asked the audience in the live stream room with a cheeky grin.
【Cached, reported!】
【How could EDG want someone with such low professional ethics? Using bugs in matches? What about your face?】
【Orphan operation, discarded face just to win.】
【Was that a drift just now? To be fair, it was indeed handsome.】
【Isn’t drift banned? Why can it still be used?】
【Using bugs to run matches, should be directly banned.】
【Someone actually praises it? This kind of trash ruins the atmosphere! What’s the use of a handsome drift BUG?】
【Aren’t you a League of Legends professional player? Not training during regular hours? Playing QQ Speed here? Even participating in SSC matches? Want to switch to being a Speed professional player?】
【Oh, almost forgot, the substitute mid laner who can’t even make starter.】
“No no no, dear daddies, show mercy! Stop the hand on report.” Li Fan’s voice sounded “cowardly,” but his mouth grinned all the way to his ears, “Do I really have to be forced to give you the video? Fine fine, I’ll teach, alright?”
【Gained learning points: 20】
This directly enraged the over five hundred people in the live stream room completely, starting to spam bullet comments densely, almost like five thousand in the live stream room.
【Trash noob yin yanging what here? Tell me what you’re yin yanging?】
【You don’t really think we won’t report, right?】
【How can there be such a disgusting person? EDG probably didn’t do any political review at all, what military-style base? Players all maliciously using bugs!】
【Pretend÷!】
“No way? Got mad already? Mentally broken already? Haven’t some people read this year’s SSC Spring Split rules?”
“What I’m using now isn’t the previous drift oh, so hope everyone reports successfully; as for the smart ones, they should have followed already, then look forward to the streamer’s tutorial, right?”
It could only be said that the combat power in 17 was indeed lacking; for Li Fan from 5202, it really had no damage, just those few lines of rhetoric over and over.
Not as strong as a few random emotes from Tieba bros making one’s brain congested.
That’s right, Li Fan originally thought he had been reborn, but found out it wasn’t rebirth but crossing to another parallel world.
Overall, this world wasn’t much different from his previous life, just some small discrepancies.
For example, his parallel world self… was actually EDG’s substitute mid laner.
That’s right, the one called Thief Saint Scout, top-tier kiting master, perfectly exemplified “if not of our kin, their hearts must differ”; thinking of slipping back to LCK before contract ended, but LCK didn’t want him at all, so he slunk back gray-faced.
EDG forgave him the first time without pursuing responsibility, but he did it again the second time!
Could only say eats beat but doesn’t learn, thirty million liquidated damages came down, directly dumbfounded Scout.
If not for Toothpaste stepping up, two training matches settled the 《student loan》, really couldn’t even go to World Championship.
But no matter what, he had won World Championship champion; Thief Saint nickname didn’t sound good, but that was also Three Saints One Emperor.
One of LPL’s current top-tier mid laners.
Even the Thief Saint at this stage wasn’t someone Li Fan could compare to.
Just used three training matches to successfully secure his starter position.
Kicked Li Fan to the water dispenser guard seat.
Fortunately as a traverser, he brought a league player neglecting one’s duties system; as long as neglecting one’s duties enough, influence range big enough, after system ruling, could gain learning points to improve his own strength.
Thus that day Li Fan completely let loose, began his slacking journey.
EDG’s others all thought Li Fan, after failing to compete for starter with Scout, completely gave up; especially Clearlove, he had the idea of mentoring young players, let alone needing a deep-binding mid-jungle pair.
After all, Scout was just a rookie player, even if he was SKT’s substitute mid laner.
Rookie is rookie, no results at all; facing such a player, Clearlove still hoped to be the lead, Scout to fully cooperate with him.
After all, paired with Pang Jiangjun for so long, Clearlove’s taste was picky.
During training matches, called him to follow several times, not sure if really didn’t understand or faked… result played completely different from what Clearlove thought.
So he still hoped Li Fan could step up, become starting mid laner.
This way, communication would have no issues.
With this idea, even specially duo queued with Li Fan.
For this Midsummer Night’s Dream, 4396 Clearlove, Li Fan actually had good feelings, but no matter how good, couldn’t affect getting rewards, so could only say sorry.
Li Fan wouldn’t forget Ming Kai’s expression then, smile on face directly stiffened.
Truth be told, for all mid laner players, duo queue invite from Ming Kai was very tempting.
As one of national server three big legs, some say if you queue with Ming Kai and still lose, it just means you can’t even leech wins.
Let alone him inviting team little bro.
Clearly planned to carry him a bit, give him a chance; good cooperation could increase competitiveness in next training matches, then get starter chance.
Shouldn’t agree directly without hesitation? Why not follow the script?
Ming Kai once thought he didn’t explain clearly, asked again, got the same answer…
Clearlove thought Li Fan had something, but discovered Li Fan downloading QQ Speed in GTP?
Base’s internet speed needless to say, thirty minutes directly downloaded the game, then watched wide-eyed as Li Fan began QQ Speed rehab training.
Clearlove completely felt Li Fan was hopeless…
Young people are like this, have to go from soft to hard; when age passes, plenty of time to regret.
Clearlove directly turned head, began his own training.
After all, each has their aspirations, he likes slacking likes streaming, nothing to be done.
From then on, thoroughly cast into cold palace by EDG.
Got a nickname of rotten mud that can’t stick to wall.
But with Scout as starting mid laner, overall no big conflicts, just act as fringe character.
Once season contract ends, immediately swept out door, not even idea to save.
After all, in their view, such players affect others’ training.
Later directly arranged Li Fan to basement, also moved a computer in, meaning obvious: don’t want to train then don’t disturb others, out of sight out of mind.
Li Fan happy with this… this way can better slack, no, can better improve his own strength!
【Orphan player, orphan operation!】
【Stay in the filthy sewer as a mouse, even streaming only in basement.】
“Don’t curse don’t curse, cursing useless anyway, because streamer really orphan, dear daddies follow to not get lost…”
